Doc. Josh Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Was doing some reading on telekinesis and other phenomena, I dont even know what to believe myself. The claims seem very bold and unexplainable to a degree. But their are some really great magician's out there who can fool the best eyes. Is this a real act? Or just simply a parlor trick old as the earth itself. Opinions thoughts skeptics welcome. I would love some hard evidence proving this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I can move objects like my arm with just a thought! Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc. Josh Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 haha well more like objects not influenced by anything but mind power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 haha well more like objects not influenced by anything but mind power. Well I know that with training some paralytics can move a wheelchair just by thinking about it instead of using their hands. http://www.gizmag.com/toyota-wheelchair-powered-brain-waves/12121/ Does that count? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc. Josh Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Wow talk about advances in technology, That is remarkable i would say that counts in my book! Good find Mr,skeptic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonstar57 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) why is the poll set up so you can vote for telekinesis being possible and impossible (i almost voted for both to set up a superposition joke) the possibility of telekinesis is possible and impossible at the same time is in a state of superposition (i guess that's not very funny ) Edited January 30, 2011 by dragonstar57 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xittenn Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I have been known to create earthquakes and massive weather systems capable of causing global panic Am I allowed to say this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPanic Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 It's not proven beyond doubt that it is impossible - but until now, there is also no proof that it is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moontanman Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) I'm not sure if it's possible to show it's impossible but I see no evidence it is possible.... BTW Dragonstar, I thought it was funny.... Edited February 1, 2011 by Moontanman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verno Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Right now, it's more of a matter of opinion than possible or impossible. My opinion is that it does exist, it's just a matter of allowing your mind to give a command to something outside your body without physically being connected to it. Sure there is no proof, but things are buried deep in history by the government. -5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genecks Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) Based on scientific society's understanding of the brain and physics, we do not have evidence for telekinesis. However, you could attempt to trivialize the matter by saying volitions of the body are acts of telekinesis, but I'm not too sure how many people will agree with your paradigm. I think if it were to exist, then you'd surely have some crazy, almost impossible level of physics and interplay with physical surroundings. I mean, at the subatomic level, you'd have to find some way to use your neurons to change other quantum/physical aspects of your surrounding. I think if this were discovered, then people would either attempt to define the physical and cellular biology involved or find a new realm of physics and/or cellular biology. You're always going to get some hardcore physicalist wanting to define everything via physical law. At best, it could attempt to elude everyone and NEVER be understood: But then that person would be independent of physics, right? Definitely supernatural. And, as I often push forward to other scientists (and I annoy them with this), I say that James Randi is a psychic killer. And what I mean by this is that if someone with the skills did come forward, they'd end up on a table as a specimen (or perhaps someone would try to kill the psychic).
